I used this for make ahead turkey meatballs to go with spaghetti on "Saturday Lunch at the Farm" ~ very easy to put together and since I did use turkey I kept the recipe true using all the seasonings as required. After microwaving meatballs and tomato sauce, I put in the crockpot to keep warm on low. This turned out terrific, especially for the meatballs as they marinated in the sauce overnight. Oh yummy! Thanks so much Anme. Will use this lots!
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I'm just a girl whos passion is for cooking, well some people would call it an obbsession rather.... I am a college student at RIT going for food management and prep, my favortie things! Most of my orignal recipes are made from left overs since I cook for one or two most days so there are always left overs in my house. I play mad scientist most days in my kitchen with left over chicken breasts lol. I am also a health food freak and a major gym rat, so I am always on the look out for good subs for the more unhealthy ingredients in most recipes. Also I am just starting to take pictures of the food I make on this site, so my photos are anything but stellar yet so I will not be offended in any way if you chooses not to use my pictures.
